I’m a big “Shrimpholic” and crave shrimp at any time of the day. While casually browsing through my travel albums, I stumbled upon my photos from the Pattaya tour. One photograph of fresh shrimp I enjoyed on Pattaya Beach particularly caught my eye and brought back wonderful memories. That shrimp was possibly the freshest I have ever tasted—straight from the ocean, lightly grilled on a portable grill, and served with sweet chilli sauce. It was absolute bliss.
As it’s midweek, I’m looking for an easy way to prepare a meal in the kitchen. I’ve shared many shrimp recipes in my previous blogs, including Pulao, Fried Rice, Shrimp Kadhai, and Tava Fry. This time, I want to share my recipe for Shrimp on Toast. It’s a breeze to make and packed with rich umami flavours. You need just three main ingredients, and voilà, you have “Heaven on a Toast”!
